Row 3 should be [k2tog yo2 k2tog] to end of row." Unfortunately, this answer came too late for me. I had already come up with a work-around, different from yours. I added a K1 at the end of row 3, and then completed row 4 as P2 K1 [P3 K1] 7X, k2tog tbl. The important part was to have a K1 P1 in each of the YO2's in row 3. <BR/><BR/>The shading is confusing but I think it works. Are you talking about Chart A? The 1st st in the RS (odd number) rows is shaded because the st is slipped as if to purl. Then the corresponding last stitch on the WS (even) row is Ktbl, indicated with a symbol but not shaded. I think the WS stitches could have been shaded also, or the shading could have been left off of the RS stitches because the symbol is unambiguous. But when I worked the stitches per the symbols, the edge looked good for picking up stitches.<BR/><BR/>I'll be interested if anyone else has comments on this.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13497663293554612880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195073239487586651.post-32693938670161707372007-09-26T07:23:00.000-07:002007-09-26T07:23:00.000-07:00I think you make up for that extra stitch at the e...I think you make up for that extra stitch at the end of Row 4. See the red symbol there? You knit 2 together there, where the other edge stitches you knit 1. I can't help with the rest.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11700138286943949644noreply@blogger.com
